The county's fire and rescue agency said a barn, a two-story garage and a loafing shed were destroyed in the fire shortly after midnight Monday in the 6100 block of Holter Road.

Fire officials said water tankers had to be brought in to fight the blaze because there was no public water system in the immediate area.

Officials said the three buildings where the fire began were completely destroyed and continued to burn into Monday afternoon; however, four other buildings that were exposed to the flames only suffered minor damage.

Investigators are trying to determine the cause of the fire. The initial damage estimate is $1 million.
